On genius part 2

No man should be regarded as a genius, because no man deserves being regarded as a genius.Who are we? Did anyone manage to overcome his/her condition throughout history?Aren't we just creatures , just tools in the hands of a higher power? The Creator of this world (either real or imaginary-offtopic note) is the only genius , whatever shape He/She desires to embrace. Eyebrows might rise, and examples could be given to oppose my idea; but let me go on with a few arguments.
Einstein is probably the first name that our society connects to the status of genius. I'll admit his scientific theories are genius, the fact that he used a higher percentage of his brain is genius, and even his quotes are genius.
Freddie Mercury is another "genius" of our conscience , widely regarded as the best musician of all times. His voice is genius, his lyrics are genius, the fact that he performed just in his underwear is genius.
Another "musical" example is Jim Morisson. His theories on freedom, his drugs , his alcohol, his music, his lyrics -genius.
This list could go on and on .These people did genius things because they were given this purpose, but do their deeds really label them as genius? Or is this just an ingenious plot of our Creator?
No matter how much we fight, we suffer, we believe we will always remain puppets , and we shall carry our burden forever. That burden is our will power , that tiny voice that dictates us to bring out the best (or the worst in us) .To me this is the price we have to pay for the Originary Sin: this irony is genius, isn't it? The thing that makes us different from the animals is actually our punishment , the mere consequence of our deeds.
In life there is one choice to be made between pursuing the goal that was set for you or the one that you set for yourself. Either way the destination is disater, but the path that leads you there makes a difference. Even in everyday life there are random words , sentences, deeds or just coincidences, that are genius.However you should always remember who you are and the limitations of your condition , therefore not judging these moments as your own creation, but rather as miracles from above. No matter how good you are at something , there will always be someone who is better , and above all that there is the "man" that is the best, the Creator. We've imitated his thoughts , his creations, his ideas rather unsucccessfully and because of a foolish courage that we are being punished for. History consists of mistakes and it repeats itself in a spiral . History was the only creation of mankind . It seems to me that all we are capable of is a series of vulgar flaws chronologically arranged; in the end all we have is a bestseller and too much misery in our souls to look into His eyes.

În alt plan de idei, te chinui prea mult :))
